Python SDET means Software Development Engineer in Test – Python. In easy terms, it is a software testing/automation role where Python is the main programming language. A manual tester might check a login page like: Enter username, Enter password, Click Login, Verify dashboard. A Python SDET would write Python automation that performs these steps automatically, potentially testing hundreds of combinations.
